Inspired by the Chinese idiom “Wang chuan ciu shuei”, or earnest expectation, “Edge of the Sight” refers to the illusion formed after a long and intense gaze.
In “Edge of the Sight-Rain”, Chang projects his imagination of existing ready-mades (rain boots), onto a screen mounted on a pile of objects to spark viewers’ imagination through images shown on the screen.
For another work, “Landscape of Whoms” the artist projects his imagination of a landscape onto a pair of eye-like screens. The eye sockets of a beautiful manga maiden now serve as a viewing device that continues to feed information to the viewer. Gradually, the landscape shown on the eye-like screens becomes the owner of the eyes. Viewers lose themselves in the landscape and their minds begin to float out of their physical beings.
